Reviews
A beautiful journey of emotions
ANUSHKA ASH
Oscar Wilde has this power of writing simple things to show greater emotions. Here he has just outdone himself.
Incomplete book
Strainedcounter
As the description says, this less than half of the complete book. There is a wonderful reading available on YouTube.

A self's knowledge trip

reader is ok, O. Wilde does a great job of self realization and owning his mistakes.
